Analog surround sound setup on Linux with a Realtek ALC898 sound card on the Clevo P751DM2-G

Setting up analog surround sound on Ubuntu Linux with a 3 3.5mm capable sound card:

A while back, I received the Logitech Z506 Speaker system, and with Windows, setting it up was a pretty plug and play experience. On Linux, however, its' a wholly different ballgame. For one, there's no Realtek HD Audio control panel here, so what gives? How do you around this problem?

Introducing the tools of the trade:

You'll want to use a tool such as hdajackretask , pavucontrol and pavumeter for the pin re-assignments and audio output monitoring afterwards respectively. The tools are installed by running:

sudo apt-get install alsa-tools-gui pavumeter pavucontrol
#!/bin/bash
set -e
JAVA_HOME=${1-text}
[ $# -eq 0 ] && { echo "Usage: sudo $0 \$(/usr/libexec/java_home -v '1.8*')" ; exit 1; }
KEYSTORE=$JAVA_HOME/jre/lib/security/cacerts

some ways to show sql generated by hibernate
Setting the hibernate.show_sql to true tells hibernate to Write all SQL statements to console. This is an alternative to setting the log category org.hibernate.SQL to debug.
So even if you set this property to false, make sure that you don't have the following category defined (or configured to use a console appender):
log4j.logger.org.hibernate.SQL=DEBUG
Also, make sure that you don't set the hibernate.show_sql programmatically to true when instancing your Configuration object. Hunt something like this:
Configuration cfg = new Configuration().configure().
.setProperty("hibernate.show_sql", "true");
Note that the setProperty(String propertyName, String value) takes as first parameter the full name of a configuration property i.e. hibernate.show_sql, not just show_sql.
